  2. Hold up. Grok, this frog cunt isn’t the first European state visit to the UK in 9 years?

  3. I don’t think France really want that tho.

    Matter is without a counterbalance like the UK, the Franco-German-led European Union is much more cohesive and fast. No more tiring debates or negotiations. Less democracy but more speed.

  5. I have severe doubts that the EU wouldn’t be ***extremely*** vindictive if the UK tried to rejoin. The fact that France threw a bitchfit because they couldn’t overfish the UK’s waters and tried to add access to do that in as a demand for mutual defence cooperation in the face of the current world situation isn’t exactly filling me with confidence.

  7. If England wanted to stay, it stayed. It’s not reliable.

  10. I don’t see this happening any time soon.

    Regardless of whether an individual felt it was a good or bad idea in 2016, in 2025 it doesn’t seem as though leaving has caused enough hardship, quite frankly.

    Yes, there have been economic problems, but it’s difficult for a layman to really pin it all on Brexit when there’s also been a global pandemic with an accompanying global downturn and all this shit with Russia on top.

    What we have seen is that Europe doesn’t give a fuck. Which in some ways is fair enough, they don’t have to, but it doesn’t instill a feeling that they actually want to rebuild bridges. France, in particular, has been quite brazen about it, which makes this speech feel pretty hollow.

    Overall, we’ve had a bad time, sure, but so has everybody else and it’s difficult to see if being in or out of the EU has actually made anything better or worse. What it has done is cause a lot of unpleasantness and rancour with European governments and so it seems silly to go back to the EU into terms that are absolutely not going to be as favourable the second time around. I’d rather look at CANZUK.

    Edit: for the record, Macron is right. The EU and the UK *were* stronger together. But we’re not together anymore. Wishing the clock back doesn’t help anyone.

  11. Yeah no, they can stay where they are, with mushy peas and flavourless fish

  13. Fat chance for good or naught. Also Macron says the right things here but doesn’t give the vibe of cooperation at all outside these last few days.

    France wants to take credit for lil bitch UK coming back with all bells and whistles attached is all.

  14. Drinking game – take a shot every time he says “together”
